We welcome applications from designers with a passion for exploring the possibilities of AI. This role requires a problem solver, a creative thinker, a willingness to experiment, and an ability to understand and interpret model behavior. A background in game design and / or UX design is important as you will be applying those principles to the crafting and development of novel AI-driven experiences.
About UsArtificial Intelligence could be one of humanity’s most useful inventions. At Google DeepMind, we’re a team of scientists, engineers, machine learning experts and more, working together to advance the state of the art in artificial intelligence. We use our technologies for widespread public benefit and scientific discovery, and collaborate with others on critical challenges, ensuring safety and ethics are the highest priority.
The Worlds team utilises game methodologies paired with simulation and rendering technologies to advance Google DeepMind’s mission to build AI responsibility to benefit humanity. We work closely with researchers, applying our expertise to explore foundational model capabilities, accelerate cutting-edge embodied agent research and help prove out the future of interactive experiences.
Team members come from a wide variety of backgrounds, including the games industry and beyond, and we leverage the team’s multi-disciplinary combination of artists, designers, engineers, researchers and QA specialists to advance the state of the art in many fields.
The RoleYou’ll work with individuals in the Worlds team and research teams to develop new experiences and iterate on existing ones, with a focus on integrating generative AI. You will engage in rapid prototyping and creative ideation. You’ll join a diverse, close-knit team of talented and supportive individuals who openly share ideas with one another.
Key responsibilities:- Rapid Prototyping: Quickly create and iterate on prototypes of experiences using generative AI systems.
- Collaboration: Work closely with a cross-functional team of researchers, engineers, and designers to achieve project goals.
- Creative Ideation: Contributing to creative brainstorming sessions and generating novel ideas for environments and generative AI applications.
- Prompt Engineering and Design: Develop and refine effective prompts for generative AI models, optimizing for desired outputs and exploring novel prompt engineering techniques.
- Model Behavior Analysis: Analyze and interpret the behavior of generative AI models, identifying strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities for improvement.
In order to set you up for success as a Designer at Google DeepMind, we look for the following skills and experience:
- A genuine passion for intuitive human-focused design.
- Creative thinking with a willingness to experiment.
- Ability to rapidly prototype and iterate on ideas.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
- Flexibility to adapt to changing technology and new opportunities.
- Enthusiasm to learn new skills and investigate new ideas.
In addition, the following would be an advantage:
- Experience of developing games / interactive applications with Unity or similar.
- Experience in video game design.
- QA background or experience.
- Experience in UI / UX design.
- Experience with generative AI models and platforms, including prompt engineering.
- Interest or experience in procedural generation systems.
